The Difference a Year Makes for Sellers

According to First American, the two leading obstacles to homeownership buyers feel today
are Affordability and Limited Inventory. Over the last few years, many sellers have been hesitant

to put their houses on the market because they feared not being able to find another one to buy.

Inventory shortages have been a constant concern for potential buyers throughout recent years,
and new research shows that the same concern is still apparent, but is starting to decrease
among potential buyers. The decrease in fear of limited inventory delivers a wealth of good news
for sellers.

At the same time, over the
past 12 months, we’ve seen

over 4-months inventory
coming to market for purchase.
In the past, the lack of listings
and available inventory slowed
down the real estate market.
This recent increase in current
inventory has many buyers and
sellers thinking it is time to
make their move now – and

rightfully so!
